South African School of English

At the South African School of English, we are committed to the promotion and teaching of the English language in a professional and caring atmosphere. As educationists, we are aware that every person is an individual and we undertake to nurture that individualism within the family atmosphere which we are known for. We are further committed to respect and protect the culture and religion of all our students.

Our English courses are offered year round and classes always start on a Monday (except where Monday is a public holiday).

We are also pleased to offer you a variety of accommodation options, from self-catering to homestays with host families to the guest house and hotel accommodation. All tailor-made so you can make the best use of your time in Cape Town. You will certainly be interested in seeing more of Cape Town and South Africa and there are loads of activities, day trips and excursions which the school offers and which are not to be missed. From sunsets on Table mountain to 3-day safaris, we do it all. If you are thinking about studying for an Exam Preparation course, please be sure to have a look at our SASE Exam Calendar which will tell you exactly when the courses are starting and when the exams are written.

We have also set up a calendar detailing the public holidays which we acknowledge in South Africa. This means that you can see what days our English school will be closed during the year and you can plan your English study holiday around them.
